Matt GTi 0 Posted March 3, 2004 Hi guys n gals When I first got my VR, it was loosing a lot of water but I put that down to the rad, as it was leaking. Got that replaced, but my coolant warning light comes on every 2 weeks or so. I can't see any leaks anywhere, there is no mayo in the oil, and there is no steam/codensation to suggest a cracked head. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 3, 2004 dodgy expansion tank cap seal... get a new cap and see if that sorts it out... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt GTi 0 Posted March 3, 2004 Good point, I didn't even cross my mind that may be why. The cap is a bit crappy, and very notchy to do up. It could well be that. Cheers Henny Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 3, 2004 yeah, it's one that catches a lot of people out (myself included in the past :roll: )... Good news is that they're reasonably cheap too... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 3, 2004 Have you checked the aux pump and thermostat housing for leaks? They might only leak under pressure, i.e when driving. K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
